Fatal Error

Hello!

 

Im a boxowner who hosts an osCommerce site for a customer.

Latly, he's got this error msg on his site:

 

Fatal error: session_start(): Failed to initialize storage module: user (path: /tmp) in www.HIDDENURL.com/shop/shop/includes/functions/sessions.php on line 67

 

I've googled for it and haven't fount anything in particular. The permissions on my /tmp are correct,

and no device is full. (Running Linux with Apache 1.3 and Php 4 and mysql 4.0).

 

He says he hasnt changed anything at all in his shop configuration for many weeks, and I beleive him, he's not a rookie when it comes to osCommerce.

 

Anyone know what can cause this? I have other installations of osCommerce on the same machine, and they dont get this error...

 

With best regards,

Martin

I'm sure you'll get other ideas for this too (especially as I'm not an admin lol), but I'd check if the session in the config files was set to mysql

Hello.

 

No, the session are stored in /tmp

Write permissions are correct on /tmp

The disk is not full.

Other sites with sessions are working fine

 

 

:(
